C                G
Listen, children to a story
Am               Em
That was written long ago
F               C
About a kingdom on a mountain
Dm           G
And a valley folk below
C               G
On the mountain was a treasure
Am            Em
Buried deep beneath a stone
F              C
And the valley people swore
       Dm      G              C   C C F F C
They'd have it for their very own

Chorus:

C                      Em
Go ahead and hate your neighbor
F                    C
Go ahead and cheat a friend
C                    Em
Do it in the name of heaven
        F                 C
You can justify it in the end
C                           Em
There won't be any trumpets blowin'
F                 C
Come the judgment day
C                     F
On the bloody morning after
Am      G7            C    C C F F C
One tin soldier rides away

C             G
So the people of the valley
Am             Em
Sent a message up the hill
F              C
Asking for the buried treasure
F                G
Tons of gold for which they'd kill
C                G
Came the answer from the kingdom
Am                 Em
With our brothers, we will share
F               C
All the secrets of our mountain
    Dm         G      C     C C F F C  
All the riches buried there

C              G
Now the valley cried in anger
Am                Em
Mount your horses Draw your swords '
F                   C
And they killed the mountain people
F            C              G
Swore they'd won their just reward
C                  G
Down they stood beside the treasure
Am              Em
On the mountain dark and red
F                    C
Turned the stone and looked beneath it
Dm         G               C     C C F F C
Peace on earth' was all it said


Chorus:

C                      Em
Go ahead and hate your neighbor
F                    C
Go ahead and cheat a friend
C                    Em
Do it in the name of heaven
        F                 C
You can justify it in the end
C                           Em
There won't be any trumpets blowin'
F                 C
Come the judgment day
C                     F
On the bloody morning after
Am      G7            C    C C F F C
One tin soldier rides away

Repeat Chorus
